Description
The aim of the summer school is to bring together early career researchers working in motives (in a broad sense) and neighbouring areas (including but not limited to algebraic geometry and number theory), who want to learn more about the subject and its applications.
The event will consist of four mini-courses. There will be an introductory course:
- Introduction to motives (Alexander Vishik);
and three topic-focused courses on the following themes:
- Motives in algebraic geometry and moduli theory (Victoria Hoskins);
- Applications of motives to number theory and periods (Francis Brown);
- Introduction to (motivic) tensor-triangular geometry (Martin Gallauer).
We will also feature a handful of contributed research talks from participants.
We kindly thank our sponsors for supporting this event:
- Heilbronn Institute for Mathematical Research;
- UKRI/EPSRC Additional Funding Programme for Mathematical Sciences;
- Foundation Compositio Mathematica;
- K-Theory Foundation.
